YouTube // Rimmel Matte BB Cream



Back in February I did a blog post on the Rimmel Matte BB Cream and mentioned that I had filmed a first impressions video on the first day I used the product... Well I finally got organised and have edited & uploaded my first ever beauty YouTube video! Scary stuff. Take a look at the video and let me know what you think! Also let me know if you have a YouTube - I'd love to sub to some fellow newbies! XO

Beauty // MAC Peach Blossom Lipstick






MAC Peach Blossom

I am almost ashamed to say, that this is the only lipstick I own from MAC! {eek!} That being said I absolutely love it, and realising it's the only one I own I can't really understand why I haven't rushed out to try more. 

I'm quite fussy lipsticks as I find some can be quite hard to wear, and I really don't enjoy having to maintain my lips throughout the day or worry about uneven wearing, smudging or general lipstick mayhem... but I adore the cremesheen formulation from MAC as it's butterysoft and melts into the lips giving them a pigmented sheen which in my mind is exactly the job of a lipstick. 

This colour is a fantastic feminine colour thats so easy for every day wear and goes with basically any makeup look. It's perfectly subtle, so works well for an understated day but it also compliments a smoky or bolder eye look. It's my go-to lipstick if I want a polished look and sophisticated feel. I can't believe I don't see more about this lipstick on blogs and youtube! 

I'm a big fan of the packaging of this product too, I love the sleek bullet shape that's instantly recognisable as MAC and looks perfectly at home in any makeup bag. Also, who can resist the heavenly vanilla scent? 

I'm dying to try more but I'm afraid of being disappointed by colours as I'm not the bravest with lipsticks and really lean towards neutrals and naturals - if you have any recommendations {especially from the cremesheen line} I'd love to hear them! Or just let me know what your favourite shade is xo
